This has got to be the best food I have ever had in my life! Great prices too! I live in Sacramento CA and I have never felt like I needed to drive 2 hours just to eat somewhere and Asqew Grill makes me CRAVE their food. Everything is grilled so while it is super tasy ,it is super healthy as well. After eating their food you don't feel bogged down and gross. I highly recomend the artichoke starter. It has a sauce I believe called soy beurre blanc...that is absolutely to die for. The sauce is an absolute explosion of flavors in your mouth. I get the artichoke all to myself along with a skewer platter...and I won't share....thats how good it is:-) I have pretty much had every thing on the menu as far as the skewers go and I have yet to be disappointed. My favorite is the grilled ahi tuna. The best salad in my opinion is the grilled pear, yum, yum!I have only been to the one location on the marina. I wish they would build an Asqew in or near Sacramento...Anyways you must try this place! P.S. the banana split is amazing too!
Pros: Fresh healthy food served in a very timely manner!
Cons: There is not an Asqew closer or in Sacramento:-(

I rarely order the same thing twice here yet it's always good. It does seem a little pricey but it's filling and yummy. It's a shame because I always forget about this place unless I am walking right by it, but it really hits the spot. I've seen the catering truck but I always forget about that too!!
Pros: Delicious and can be healthy
Cons: Doesn't look that clean behind the counter

A fun little counter-service restaurant with quite a few menu options and good food. I ordered the BBQ chicken, which comes with corn on the cob and onions on the skewer, and garlic mashed potatoes. It was very good, although the mashed potatoes were super-creamy (I like a little more texture) and all my other food sunk into them. I think a salad would have been a better choice. My husband had lamb and Caesar salad, which he enjoyed. We both ordered the half portion (one skewer instead of two) so we would have room for the grilled brownie sundae. Even so, it was too much for the two of us to finish! On our Sunday night visit, service was friendly and efficient, and the place was doing a good business without being too crowded. Overall, thumbs up!
Pros: lots of choices, good food

They have a decent selection, and the skewers are ok, but could use more flavor. Side dishes are pretty tasty. Their posted menu makes deciding how to order look far more complicated than it actually is. But I have to say, for the portion sizes and informal vibe of the establishment, my bill always comes out far higher than I expected!
Pros: Good side dishes
Cons: Overpriced, skewers only ok

Asqew Grill uses a different perspective on bbq. Pricewise, menu items are under $10. It is a casual eatery but they have great, almost gourmet ingredients and menu items. When I went, I had the mango lime mahi-mahi. Other menu items include salmon, ginger basil lamb, portabella mushroom, yummmm....I went to their location in the Marina District on Steiner and Chestnut. There are 3 other locations, in the Haight, Castro, Bay Street. ( http://www.asqewgrill.com ).

Asqew is a casual place, with food you won't write home about, but it's good enough to be standby place when you're in the neighborhood and want something homey. Stick to the tender lime-accentuated grilled chicken and corn on the cob. I've tried some of the other options, and they aren't nearly as good. I wish they'd improve the service and look of the place, since it could be much more than a rundown cafe, but I've certainly had worse dining experiences. They have inherent value for those of us on the go.
Pros: consistent standby, reasonable prices, fairly healthy
Cons: no service, tough parking, few dishes stand out

My beau and I enjoyed our first lunch together at Asqew. Sentiments aside, we've been back many, many times and have never been disappointed with the food and the service. The mechanic's overalls that the staff wear add to the overall ambience, but their great personalities definitely make it a place to keep coming back to. And the FOOD ~ before Asqew I had no idea that food on a skewer could taste so delicious. They will grill just about anything, and their meat and marinade combinations positively wake up your tastebuds! This place is our standby when we're in the city.
Pros: Fresh, Healthy Food, Made to Order, Cheap!!!!!!!!!
Cons: Parking
